[QUOTE="compscigrad, post: 5476541, member: 100003"] batting 0.1 is a 90% failure rate, as you only hit 10% of the pitches thrown at you. Source: Wikipedia "In [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baseball']baseball[/URL], [B]batting average[/B] ([B]BA[/B]) is determined by dividing a player's [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hits_(baseball)']hits[/URL] by their total [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/At-bats']at-bats[/URL]. It is usually rounded to three decimal places and read without the decimal: A player with a batting average of .300 is "batting three-hundred". If necessary to break ties, batting averages could be taken beyond the .001 measurement. In this context, .001 is considered a "point", such that a .235 batter is 5 points higher than a .230 batter."
